Conclusion

Although the whole purpose of going there was to soak in the onsen, I didn’t since I was really tired.

Meanwhile my son was happy to wear “Yukata” 🙂

If you want to come here by aeroplane, you can depart from Narita(NRT), Sapporo Chitose(CTS), Itami(ITM), Nagoya(NH) and Fukuoka(FUK).

Or, you can use Shinkansen, taking less than 2 hours.

Also there are tasty sweets, famous for Japanese people, called “Ohagi(おはぎ)” in a supermarket “Saichi(さいち)” :
